This document provides an overview of collections in computer science and Python. It defines a collection as a grouping of variable data items that need to be operated on together. Collections include common data structures like arrays, lists, sets, trees and graphs. In Python, built-in collection types include lists, sets, dictionaries and tuples, while the collections module provides additional types like deque. The document discusses lists and arrays in detail, covering how to access and modify elements, basic operations, and when each type is best suited depending on the needs of the problem.
Python is a widely used high-level programming language for general-purpose programming. Python is a simple, powerful and easy to learn the programming language. It is commonly used for Web and Internet development, Scientific and Numeric computing, Business application and Desktop GUI development etc. The basic data structures in python are lists, dictionaries, tuples, strings and sets

The Key Difference between a List and a Tuple. The main difference between lists and a tuples is the fact that lists are mutable whereas tuples are immutable. A mutable data type means that a python object of this type can be modified. Let's create a list and assign it to a variable.
METHODS DESCRIPTION
copy() They copy() method returns a shallow copy of the dictionary.
clear() The clear() method removes all items from the dictionary.
pop() Removes and returns an element from a dictionary having the given key.
popitem() Removes the arbitrary key-value pair from the dictionary and returns it as tuple.
get() It is a conventional method to access a value for a key.
dictionary_name.values() returns a list of all the values available in a given dictionary.
str() Produces a printable string representation of a dictionary.
update() Adds dictionary dict2’s key-values pairs to dict
setdefault() Set dict[key]=default if key is not already in dict
keys() Returns list of dictionary dict’s keys
items() Returns a list of dict’s (key, value) tuple pairs
has_key() Returns true if key in dictionary dict, false otherwise
fromkeys() Create a new dictionary with keys from seq and values set to value.
type() Returns the type of the passed variable.
cmp() Compares elements of both dict.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Week 4 – Collections 1
2. Collections
• In computer science a collection is a grouping
of a variable number of data items (possibly
zero) that have some shared significance to
the problem being solved and need to be
operated upon together in some controlled
fashion – Wikipedia
• They formally belong to a group of data types
called Abstract Data Types.
3. Collections - Data Structures
• A data structure is a specialized format for organizing
and storing data. General data structure types include
the array, the file, the record, the table, the tree, and
so on.
Any data structure is designed to organize data to suit
a specific purpose so that it can be accessed and
worked with in appropriate ways. Wikipedia
• I will, in fact, claim that the difference between a bad
programmer and a good one is whether they consider
their code or their data structures more important. –
Linus Torvals (my minor change ‘he’ -> ‘they’ – sorry Linus )
4. Kinds of collections
• Different kinds of collections are Arrays, Lists,
Sets, Trees, Graphs and Maps or Dictionaries.
• Fixed-size arrays are usually not considered a
collection because they hold a fixed number
of data items, although they commonly play a
role in the implementation of collections.
• Variable-size arrays are generally considered
collections.
5. Python Collection Types
• In build types : list, set, dict, tuple
• collections module adds more :
• deque
• Counter
• OrderedDict : dict subclass that remembers the order
entries were added
• defaultdict : dict with missing values
6. Arrays, Python arrays and Lists
• In most computer languages an array is the simplest form
of collection.
• It is a sequence of memory positions that can be used to
store elements.
• Python considers the Array a special kind of List.
• The Python List has many very cool features that other
languages do not. These might be the reason to write
part or the whole of a system in Python.
7. Lists – indexed access
A sequence of memory positions that can be used to store elements.
# declare a variable myList of type List populated with elements 10 to 50
myList = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50]
# Can access the elements using an index.
print myList[3]
40
# Index position starts at zero.
print myList[0]
10
myList 10 20 30 40 50
index 0 1 2 3 4
8. Lists – indexed access
# Can use a variable to index elements in the array or list
index = 4
print myList [ index ]
50
# A access from the end using negative index
print myList [-1]
50
print myList[-3]
30
myList 10 20 30 40 50
index 0 1 2 3 4
-5 -4 -3 -2 -1
9. Lists – index out of range
# We get an IndexError when we try to index out of bounds
myList = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50]
print myList[ 20 ]
IndexError: list index out of range
10. Lists - slices
# Lists can be accessed using a ‘slice’
myList = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50]
# myList[ start : until ] UNTIL is not included
print myList [ 1 : 4 ]
[20,30,40]
# You can omit implied start and until
print myList [ : 4 ]
[10,20,30,40]
print myList [ 2 : ]
[30, 40, 50]
11. Lists - slices
# A slice can be defined in steps
myList = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50]
# myList[ start : until : step ]
print myList [ 1 : 4 : 2 ]
[20,40]
# With implied values for start and end
print myList [ : : 2]
[10, 30, 50]
print myList [ : : 3]
[10, 40]
12. Lists – assignment to slices
myList = [10,20,30,40,50]
# replace some values
myList[2:4] = ['C', 'D', 'E']
print myList
[10, 20, 'C', 'D', 'E', 50]
# now remove them by assigning an empty list to the same positions
myList[2:5] = []
print myList
[10, 20, 50]
# clear the list by replacing all the elements with an empty list
myList[:] = []
print myList
[]
13. Lists – Strings
# Strings are treated as a list
name = "Felix The House Cat“
print name[2:5]
'lix'
# Strings are immutable – you cannot change them :
name[2:5] = "CAN NOT DO THIS"
TypeError: 'str' object does not support item assignment
15. Lists – more operations
Expression Result
remove(30) [10,20,40,50]
index(40) 3
index(99) ValueError: 99 is not in list
count(30) 1
append
reverse() [50, 40, 30, 20, 10]
Given myList = [10,20,30,40,50]
17. Lists
Lists and arrays can be multidimensional.
Lists of lists.
myMulti = [ [1,2,3], ['a','b','c'], [100,200,300] ]
myMulti[ 0 ][ 2 ]
3
myMulti[ 1 ][ 1 ]
'b'
myMulti[ 1 ][ 1: ]
['b', 'c']
18. Arrays
• Array is different to List because all elements in an array must be the same
type
• myList = [10, 20, 'C', 'D', 'E', 30, 40, 50]
Python docs:
https://docs.python.org/2/library/array.html
The module defines the following type:
class array.array(typecode[, initializer])
A new array whose items are restricted by typecode, and initialized from
the optional initializer value, which must be a list, string, or iterable over
elements of the appropriate type.
19. Arrays - typecode
class array.array(typecode[, initializer])
Type code C Type Python Type
Minimum size in
bytes
'c' char character 1
'b' signed char int 1
'B' unsigned char int 1
'u' Py_UNICODE Unicode character 2 (see note)
'h' signed short int 2
'H' unsigned short int 2
'i' signed int int 2
'I' unsigned int long 2
'l' signed long int 4
'L' unsigned long long 4
'f' float float 4
'd' double float 8
myFloats = array.array( 'f' , [ 3.1415, 0.6931, 2.7182 ] )
20. Arrays – same type
import array
myIntArray = array.array('L', [10, 20, 30, 40, 50])
print myIntArray[1]
array.array('L', [10, 20, 'C', 'D', 'E', 30, 40, 50])
TypeError: an integer is required
21. Why Is Data Structure Choice Important?
Remember what Linus said about the importance of
data structures?
... whether they consider their code or their data
structures more important ...
Let’s see what he means.
Consider the differences between a List and an Array.
22. Why Chose List Or Array
• In most languages including Python List is
implemented as a chain of element positions
called a linked list.
• Adding to the front of a list is cheap.
• Adding to the end of a list is expensive
because we have to run along the whole list to
find the end and then add the new element.
10 20 30 40
23. Why Chose List Or Array
• Inserting an element in a list relatively cheap.
• Lists have the memory overhead of all the
pointers.
10 20 30 40
A
24. Why Chose List Or Array
With arrays we always know the length so adding an element to the end is very cheap.
Depending on how arrays are implemented in
your language :
Inserting is very expensive
because we have to take copies of
the parts and then glue back together.
Adding to the front of an array is very expensive
for the same reason.
Choosing the right data structure is important .
25. Special list and arrays - Stack, Queue, Deque
• A stack is a last in, first out (LIFO) data
structure
– Items are removed from a stack in the reverse
order from the way they were inserted
• A queue is a first in, first out (FIFO) data
structure
– Items are removed from a queue in the same
order as they were inserted
• A deque is a double-ended queue—items can
be inserted and removed at either end
